stock certificates are transferred, that II
on the books OF the County Treasurer and
Clerk OF the Board OF Supervisors. By
this plan the Assessor could determine
who owned all the warrants outstanding
and the county would receive the taxes
On them the same as On bank stock and
other securities.

The Champion quietly insinuates that
the county seat OF Yavapai ought to be
removed to Flagstaff. We don't think
50; the county should be divided, and
the next Legislature, which viii surely
be Republican, will do it. Any comfy
which takes its Sheriff three days to
reach its boaniIry from his oaiee is too
large for the purposes o. Justice, il for nc
other consideration.
